A system for capturing images for training an item identification model obtains an identifier of an item. The system detects a triggering event at a platform, where the triggering event corresponds to a user placing the item on a platform. At least one camera captures an image of the item. The system extracts a set of features associated with the item from the image. The system associates the item to the identifier and the set of features. The system adds a new entry to a training dataset of the item identification model, where the new entry represents the item labeled with the identifier and the set of features.

System and method for capturing images for training of an item identification model

A system for updating a training dataset of an item identification model determines that an item is not included in a training dataset. In response to determining that the item is not included in the training dataset, the system obtains an identifier of the item. The system detects a triggering event at a platform, where the triggering event corresponds to a user placing the item on a platform. The system captures images of the item. The system extracts a set of features associated with the item from the images. The system associates the item to the identifier and the set of features. The system adds a new entry to the training dataset, where the new entry represents the item labeled with the identifier and the set of features.

Database management system and method for updating a training dataset of an item identification model

A device configured to receive a first encoded vector and receive one or more feature descriptors for a first object. The device is further configured to remove one or more encoded vectors from an encoded vector library that are not associated with the one or more feature descriptors and to identify a second encoded vector in the encoded vector library that most closely matches the first encoded vector based on the numerical values within the first encoded vector. The device is further configured to identify a first item identifier in the encoded vector library that is associated with the second encoded vector and to output the first item identifier.

Reducing a search space for item identification using machine learning

A system for capturing images for training an item identification model obtains an identifier of an item. The system detects a triggering event at a platform, where the triggering event corresponds to a user placing the item on a platform. The system causes the platform to rotate. The system causes at least one camera to capture an image of the item while the platform is rotating. The system extracts a set of features associated with the item from the image. The system associates the item to the identifier and the set of features. The system adds a new entry to a training dataset of the item identification model, where the new entry represents the item labeled with the identifier and the set of features.

A system includes a door sensor that provides a status of whether a door of a refrigeration system is open or closed, a temperature sensor that measures a temperature of a food compartment of the refrigeration system, a power sensor that measures an amount of power consumed by the refrigeration system, and a compressor sensor that provides acoustic data about a compressor of the refrigeration system. The system further includes a remote computing system configured to send an alert indicating that the refrigeration system needs servicing when the temperature of the food compartment of the refrigeration system is determined to be above a predetermined temperature while: the door of the refrigeration system is closed, the amount of power consumed by the refrigeration system is within a predetermined power range, and acoustic signals of the compressor of the refrigeration system are within a predetermined acoustic range.

Systems and methods for monitoring refrigeration systems

A system for identifying items based on aggregated metadata obtains images of an item. The system extracts a set of features from images of the item. The system identifies a first value of a first feature associated with a first image of the item. The system identifies a second value of the first feature associated with a second image of the item. The system aggregates the first value and the second value. The system associates the item to the aggregated first value and the second value, where the aggregated first value and the second value represent the first feature of the item. The system adds a new entry for each image of the item to a training dataset associated with an item identification model.
